Seneca County, Ohio

A Part of OHGenWeb, USGenWeb Project

Welcome to Seneca County

Located in the northwestern part of Ohio, Seneca County was formed in 1820 from Huron County. It's county seat is Tiffin, and it is home to Heidelberg College. It is our plan to make this into a location where you can find information and resources for your genealogical research. We hope you enjoy your visit and will find something you can use. Be sure to visit us often, as we will be updating and adding to our resources.

Check out the Seneca County links (including the Seneca Co. Archives) listed below. Still can't find what you need? The mailing address for the Seneca Co. chapter of the OGS is listed at the bottom, along with the courthouse's mailing address.
